Upcoming Sermon Topics
Nov 16, 2025 Sermon: “True Faith Goes Beyond Ritual.” Scripture: Romans 2:17-29 Theme: Religious rituals and practices can be valuable expressions of faith, but Paul reminds us in Romans 2:17–29 that outward observance is not enough. Without an inward transformation of the heart, these practices lose their meaning. Today, we’ll reflect on the danger of relying on external religion while neglecting the inner spiritual reality that God truly desires.
Nov 23, 2026 Sermon Title: “We are All in it Together.” Scripture: Romans 3:1-20 Theme: Though we may be hesitant to admit it, Scripture is clear: we are all "under sin" (Romans 3:9). In this sobering passage, the Apostle Paul dismantles any illusion of self-righteousness and reminds us of our universal need for God’s mercy. Today, we will reflect on this profound truth—and consider how we are called to respond in humility, repentance, and faith.
ADVENT/DECEMBER 2025 SERMONS
Sunday, November 30 – The Prophets: The Candle of Hope Scripture: Isaiah 9:2–7; Micah 5:2–5a Sermon: “Holding On to Hope in the Waiting” Theme: The prophets of Israel spoke to a people who had lost their way. Yet into that darkness came words like “The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light.” Today we will consider the prophetic invitation to live with expectant faith. Sunday, December 7 – The Mother, Mary: The Candle of Faith Scripture: Luke 1:26–38 Sermon: “Saying Yes to God” Theme: Mary, was an ordinary young woman in an ordinary village. Yet God saw in her a heart ready to believe. Today we will see that faith often begins with that same simple trust: even when we no know what that faith will require of us. Sunday, December 14 – The Angels: The Candle of Joy Scripture: Luke 2:8–14 Sermon: “Good News for All People” Theme: That first Christmas the angels appeared to people who lived on the margins. God’s message of joy is not exclusive. Today’s sermon emphasis is that Good News of the savior’s birth is for all people.
Sunday, December 21 – The Shepherds: The Candle of Love Scripture: Luke 2:15–20 Sermon: “Love Comes to the Lowly” Theme: In this messageour attention is drawn to the Shepherds and their response to the good news announced by the angels that the Savior was born in Bethlehem.
Christmas Eve, December 24 – The Christ Candle: The Light of the World Scripture: John 1:1–14; Luke 2:1–20 Sermon: “The Light Has Come” Theme: On this Christmas eve we will consider how the mystery of Christmas is that God did not stay distant. The Word became flesh and dwelt among us and challenges us to let His light shine in our hearts, homes and neighborhoods.
Sunday December 28 Scripture: Matthew 2:1–12 Sermon Title: “Following the Light: The Journey of the Wise Men”
Theme: On this Sunday following Christmas we will consider how Christ reveals Himself not only to those near, but to those far off and how the Wise Men’s journey invites us to seek, worship, and give our best to the King.
